How do you stop nosediving every time?
I can catch the wave and start to pop up but the nose just buries and I go over the front. Every. Single. Time. What am I doing wrong?
Classic weight-too-far-forward. When you pop up, get your weight back and your back foot over the fins. Sounds counterintuitive but it works.
Also might be too small a board for where you are. What are you riding?
This was me a year ago. It clicks suddenly. Keep at it and ask a coach to watch you from the beach.
